Where in the World are Beth and Ruth?

Ruth has planned a number of interesting events while I am with her in Lanzhou. I will get to visit her English classes at the university. We will also be going on visits to Dave's home and Daniel's home. This will provide a view of real life that would not be seen on a typical tourist's itinerary. I will also attend church with her and help with a Bible Study. We will also visit Barry's home in conjunction with seeing the terra cotta warriors in Xian.

I know that I will be taking planes, trains, and buses on my travels within China. I also will be making good use of my feet. I probably will come home in better shape. For starters, Ruth's apartment is on the 8th floor and there are no elevators.
